SUMMARY:Panel discussion: From Eugenics to Ethics: Lessons for Today’s Medical Community
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Americans and the Holocaust traveling exhibition at the Calvin T. Ryan Library on the University of Nebraska Kearney campus\, an online panel discussion will be held by the Leon S. McGoogan Health Sciences Library on the University of Nebraska Medical Center Campus. \nMedicine has come a long way—but its past still shapes the present. \nMcGoogan Library presents a thought-provoking panel\, exploring the troubling legacy of eugenics in medicine and its enduring impact on healthcare ethics. Matthew K. Wynia\, MD\, MPH and Patricia Heberer-Rice\, PhD\, MA\, will discuss how misguided “science” once justified harm\, and how those historical practices influenced the medical education\, policy\, and the ethical frameworks that guide contemporary care. Through critical reflection\, the discussion will highlight lessons for today’s clinicians and researchers\, emphasizing the importance of equity\, autonomy\, and justice in medical decision-making. \nTo register for the event\, please visit: Webinar Registration – Zoom \nMatthew K.
